Story
Shetland is a beautiful 4-year old+ female Mastiff mix old+ who was brought to the HSOV on October 21, 2025 by a Good Samaritan who had found her along State Route 26 in Washington County Ohio. Shetland was not wearing a collar, and she was not microchipped. This lovely girl has a tan short smooth coat with a coarse texture, a long tail, and an adorable face with soulful brown eyes, subtle black/white shading on her large muzzle, and short floppy ears. Shetland weighs 79 lbs and epitomizes the oft-used phrase 'gentle giant' (smile). Shetland walks fairly well on a leash and was ready for an outing with HSOV Volunteer Carla Perry when these photos were taken on October 28, 2025. Shetland is an accomplished 'howler' with a melodious voice which was music to Carla's ears, so naturally she offered to take Shetland for a walk and also to give her extra TLC ... And the paparazzi tagged along when she saw an opportunity to take out-of-kennel pictures of Shetland. We noticed while Shetland was enjoying her adventure that she appears to be hearing- and perhaps vision-impaired. In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Shetland was held for the mandatory three-day stray hold so that her family would have an opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership. Since she was not reclaimed, Shetland is now available for foster or foster-to-adopt. She will be spayed before an adoption is finalized. Update: Shetland went home with a foster family on November 8th who offered her a temporary home while she awaits her forever home. If you would like to meet Shetland in person, please complete an HSOV foster/adoption application for approval so that we may arrange a meet-and-greet with Shetland. Be prepared to fall in love with this big sweetheart. Shetland went home with another foster family on November 14th 2025. Shetland is good with other dogs, cats, and children. She is also housetrained.

Story
Apollo is a majestic one-year old male Cane Corso Mastiff mix who was surrendered by his owner to the Washington County Ohio Dog Warden on June 20, 2024 following an unfortunate bite incident with a family member. Apollo was placed on a mandatory 10-day quarantine when he entered our shelter. Apollo has a sleek black short smooth coat, a long tail, and a handsome face with dark brown eyes, a large muzzle, and large semi-erect ears. His owner reported that Apollo was good with OLDER children and that he was good with other animals. Apollo is up-to-date on vaccinations and that he is housetrained. These pictures of Apollo were taken on July 7, 2024 when HSOV Kennel Tech Emily Beaver had Apollo outdoors for a long walk around the HSOV grounds and graciously took a detour through our photo area for several pictures. It seemed at first that Apollo was a little leery of the paparazzi but it turned out that he had spotted one of our outdoor shelter mascot kitties nearby .. And he was WAY too interested in the kitty. We'd say that Apollo should not be in a home where he would have any potential contact with cats. Apollo currently weighs 106 lbs and is extremely strong on a leash. He would need an experienced handler and someone with athletic abilities to match those of Apollo in order to give him the exercise/training he requires. Apollo will be neutered before being adopted by his new family.
